<h4 class="heading4">Publishing Sites with Adobe Dreamweaver</h4>
<p class="bodytext">Before publishing a site from Dreamweaver, you need to define the site properties, that is, you need to tell Dreamweaver where your site files are located on your computer, and to specify the server to which you want to publish the site.  </p>
<p class="bodytext"></p>
<p class="procedureheading">To define a site in Dreamweaver:</p>
<ol class="procedurelistnumber"><li class="procedurelistnumber">From the <strong class="specialbold">Site</strong> menu, choose <strong class="specialbold">New Site</strong>. The Site Definition screen opens.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click the <strong class="specialbold">Advanced</strong> tab.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">In the <strong class="specialbold">Local Info</strong> category, specify the following:<ul class="listbullet2"><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Site name</strong>. This will show in Web browser's title bar.</li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Local root folder</strong>. This is the folder on your computer where all of your site files are stored. For example <code class="monospace">c:\My Site</code></li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Default images folder</strong>. Specify the folder where your site's graphic files are stored. For example <code class="monospace">c:\My Site\images</code></li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">HTTP address</strong>. Specify your domain name. For example, <code class="monospace">http://your-domain.com</code></li></ul></li><li class="procedurelistnumber">From the <strong class="specialbold">Category</strong> menu, select the <strong class="specialbold">Remote Info</strong> item.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">From the <strong class="specialbold">Access</strong> menu, select the <strong class="specialbold">FTP</strong> option. Most likely, your server supports publishing through FTP (File Transfer Protocol, commonly used for transferring files over the Internet).</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Specify the following settings:<ul class="listbullet2"><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">FTP host</strong>. Type your FTP host name without the <code class="monospace">ftp://</code> prefix. For example, <code class="monospace">your-domain.com</code>.</li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Host directory</strong>. Specify the directory on the server where your site will reside. In most cases, this is <code class="monospace">httpdocs</code>.</li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Login and password</strong>. Specify the login name and password for access to the FTP account.</li><li class="listbullet2"><strong class="specialbold">Use passive FTP</strong>. Select this option only if your computer is behind a firewall.</li></ul></li><li class="procedurelistnumber">To ensure that you specified the correct login and password, and that Dreamweaver can connect to the server, click the <strong class="specialbold">Test</strong> button.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">To save the settings, click <strong class="specialbold">OK</strong>.</li></ol><p class="bodytext"></p>
